NEYMAR 2014 FIFA WORLD CUP MATCH WORN BRAZIL JERSEY - BRAZIL v CAMEROON
On offer is a Nike brand short-sleeved yellow jersey which was worn by the Brazilian professional footballer Neymar during the 2014 FIFA World Cup match of Brazil v Cameroon which was held on 23rd June, 2014 in Estadio Nacional Mane Garrincha, Brazil. Cameroon last played Brazil in a World Cup in 1994, won by Brazil 3-0. Brazil, where a draw would guarantee their qualification to the knockout stage, opened the scoring in the 17th minute when Luiz Gustavo crossed from the left for Neymar to beat the goalkeeper with a first time low side-footed finish to the corner. Already-eliminated Cameroon equalised when Allan Nyom beat Dani Alves on the left before crossing for Joel Matip to finish from close range. Neymar put Brazil back in front when he collected the ball from Marcelo and ran at goal before finishing with a low right-footed shot that wrong footed the goalkeeper from just inside the penalty area. In the second half David Luiz crossed from the left for Fred to extend Brazil's lead with a close range header before half-time substitute Fernandinho completed the scoring when he collected a pass from Oscar before finishing with a low right-footed shot. The result assured that Brazil pipped Mexico on goal difference to qualify to the knockout stage as group winners. The match was Brazil's 100th in the World Cup, and they followed Germany (which played their 100th match in their first game of the 2014 World Cup) to become the second team to reach the milestone. Neymar scored two goals in the first half (17', and 35').
The jersey features the name" NEYMAR" and #10 applied on the back. A smaller #10 is applied on the front. Nike swoosh & CBF badge with five stars are embroidered on the chest. "2014 FIFA WORLD CUP Brasil" competition logo is applied to right sleeve. "FOOTBALL FOR HOPE" logo applied to left sleeve. Made in Thailand. Sized M.
